One Night Stand

This post is from the now defunct website “A GameDev Plays…”, copied here for posterity

What happens after a drunken one night stand? Find out in the awkward
short story game One Night
Stand.

You wake up, head throbbing, in a strange flat next to an unknown naked
woman. What do you do? What do you say? One Stand Stand is a point &
click story game that starts with that premise. You can try to get to
know the woman better or sneak out or take a look around. Each game
lasts around 30 minutes and your decisions can lead to 12 different
endings. However it feels weird to replay the game as you already know
so much about this woman from previous run-throughs - it seems unfair
(just knowing her name is a spoiler). Still this short and tightly
focussed game delivers its story well and never gives the impression of
cheating or forcefully directing the player (probably because it is
short and focussed). One of the more successful story games I’ve played
and well worth a look if you enjoy this genre.
